Death, also known as the Angel of Death, is the oldest and most powerful of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. He is so old he cannot remember who is older: himself or God. Due to his advanced age, he feels detached from others and is unmoved by their troubles, seeing them as insignificant and irrelevant to the future. He can sometimes be seen carrying an old-fashioned black leather doctor's bag, the contents kept private. Death has a fondness for junk food, including bacon dogs and pizza, soda and pickle chips.
Death possess some remarkable abilities. He is able to create cataclysmic events so harsh that he can wipe the Earth clean of any and all life. He is exempt from all forms of pain, fatigue, age, and disease; he firmly believes that he will eventually be the only thing to last forever. Death also has the touch of life and death, although he does not bring anyone back from the dead as he believes it upsets the natural order of things.
"Life asked death, 'Why do people love me but hate you?' Death responded, 'Because you are a beautiful lie and I am a painful truth." —Author unknown
